Combloux skiing
From La Cry there are several drags that take you a short way up, to some nice beginner slopes. Here you can practice your skills without feeling daunted. If you’re ready to tackle something a little harder then head up Beauregard from where you can take the blue run Papa down to Pertius chairlift.
Once you’re at the top of Pertius there is the Bel Ava blue run that merges into a green to take you to the Jaillet gondola and on to Ravine chair lift. This is a great run to start practising some different skills, as it has steep sections, narrower flatter sections and some small hills. Another run for beginners from the top of Pertius is the blue down to the Jouty chair lift. It takes you through the forest on a little winding trail, and is very often pretty much empty.
Combloux is an ideal resort for intermediate skiers looking to test their skills. With a wealth of blue and red runs to explore, adventurous skiers will be spoilt for choice. The Princesse sector is perfect for intermediate skiers, with many wide, cruisy blues. For a thrilling descent, check out the red run Le Bouchet. It offers a swift ride down to the village with spectacular panoramic views.
Combloux’s challenging terrain makes it a favourite among advanced skiers. The black run, Les Salles, is one of the most renowned runs in the resort. With a steep incline and a vertical drop of nearly 600m, it’s a thrilling ride. The Aigle black piste on Christomet is a nice steep blast in good conditions.
Combloux village
Combloux village itself is very small, so if you’re looking for lively après-ski, it's best to head to nearby Megève. However, if you prefer atmospheric winter walks through a charming village and a quiet drink in a local French bar, Combloux is the place for you.
In the center of Combloux, you’ll find a large tourist office where the staff speak good English.
